2 Configuration Steps Overview

Starting with an eWON 2001 or 4001 out of the box, this document will show how to set up a remote collaboration

using several steps. The purpose of some of the steps is to test what has been set up so far. Those steps are

therefore not absolutely necessary, but they can be really useful to localize a possible problem. The steps are:

• Setting up a test program in the PLC using a direct DF1 connection between the PC and the PLC

• eWON DF1 configuration

• Set up a Tag to test the DF1 configuration

• Installing and configuring the Remote Collaboration

• Using the Remote Collaboration

After each of the steps, a small test will be described to check that the step has been executed correctly.

3 PLC Configuration

We will put a small program in the PLC, so that we will be able to test the connection between the eWON and the

PLC in the next section. To first set up the PLC, we will need a direct connection between the computer and the

PLC. To do this, connect the PLC terminal port to the PC RS232 serial port (cable 1747-PC3 for instance). Once

done, open RSLinx.

4 RSLinx Full Duplex Serial Driver Configuration

Inside RSLinx select: Communications/Configure Drivers.

Among the available driver types, select RS-232 DF1 Devices and click the Add New button to get the following

dialog box:

Figure 2: RS-232 DF1 device configuration

Set the DeviceType, Station Number and Comm Port with the values given in the previous screen window, set the

protocol value to Full Duplex and click the Auto-Configure button.

“Auto configuration successful” should be displayed.
